To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 175
Episode 175 The Turbulent Imperial Family (2)
“They’re going crazy.”
Ray shook his head at this absurd situation.
Some assassins were out there during the night, so I was just in case.
After spending a few days taking care of the emperor, they are killing each other.
Then my head hurt.
The emperor was just getting up from the bed and moving his body, but one of the princes had already died.
It is the death of the prince in a small way, but it will have a big impact on the empire.
After the death of the prince was announced, it was like announcing that the battle of the imperial family had finally begun.
As they moved, Ray began to move too.
‘It’s troublesome when there are more victims.’
To be honest, I didn’t know who the emperor would be, but at least it’s difficult for someone to die.
It is the same for the Holy Kingdom as well as for the emperor.
He did not know that the emperor’s illness would worsen if all his children died after beating each other.
Didn’t you know that illness comes from the heart? It’s not entirely true, but I have to admit that to some extent.
Ray walked around the imperial castle and gathered information.
The information obtained through the knights, maids, and various nobles was like this.
Someone killed the guards and broke into Prince Oh’s bedroom.
And Prince Oh died from having his throat pierced cleanly.
It’s very simple information, but it was helpful in identifying the opponent.
‘The opponent must be a sword master or an Aura user close to him.’
What he thought of this was the secrecy of the incident not being known until morning.
It would be difficult to kill all the guards and infiltrate into Prince Oh’s bedroom without even knowing the seven guards.
It would be possible if it was Soyoung, but I don’t think there would be an assassination organization with such strong talents in the empire.
That’s why the assassin must have been a small elite who could move stealthily.
He was also a figure that everyone in the imperial family would know.
With that conclusion, it is understandable that the guards lost their lives in an instant because they were not vigilant.
However, when he looked around the nobles inside the imperial castle, the presence of mana was not very strong.
Perhaps if they had tried to assassinate Prince Oh, they would have been subdued in an instant.
As a result, nobles were already out of the question for assassins.
All that was left was the servants and the internal forces of the empire, which would have aroused the suspicion of the guardsmen.
So, excluding them.
Just in time, a very plausible figure popped into Ray’s mind.
A person who has skills close to that of a sword master and who can relieve the guards’ vigilance.
‘Is this the prince?’
The mana itself felt from the first meeting was exceptional.
If I had to pick someone who would have attempted a perfect assassination like now, I would pick this prince first.
Of course, if you look for more accurate information, you won’t be able to find it, but there is a more certain way than that.
The assassin will definitely try to kill again next time.
Because it is the most neat and not itchy at the back.
Ray just had to target and block it.
Waiting for someone to try again.
* * *
“Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
The emperor struggled to get out of bed.
Even if this is not giving birth, the amount that is said to be in the mood to give birth to another, even if it is late.
Looking at him, Ray cheered enthusiastically.
“If you push too hard, you will get hurt. Take it easy. Take it easy.”
“Keep it off…”
I want to hit it hard, but my body is like this, so I can’t help it.
Had ten minutes passed? The emperor barely got up from the bed.
Then, Ray also stood up.
The emperor now knows very well what is to come.
Maybe make this a repeat.
As he expected, Rey put the Emperor back in his seat.
“Ugh!”
“Ah, don’t be so violent. I have to do it again anyway.”
There was not even the slightest hint of awe for the Emperor as the sheep spoke while clearing its ears.
I’m going crazy wondering why it’s not being treated with divine power, but I have no choice but to do it because I’m told to do it.
You can actually feel your body moving little by little.
Ray said, looking at the emperor who used the dragon again in bed.
“I’ll let everyone know I’m awake when I can move more properly. Looking at the current situation in the imperial family, if you hadn’t rushed to announce that you had come to your senses…”
He pretended to cut his throat.
“It’s over, it’s over. My father woke up and there must be too many people to turn to. Tsk tsk.”
The sheep who spoke while clicking his tongue was more like an emperor than an emperor.
However, the story was not wrong.
Indeed, in the case of this prince, it is more troublesome for the emperor to be alive.
This is because if Prince Il, the first in the line of succession, is alive and the emperor wakes up, there is no way he can do anything about it anymore.
That’s why Ray is planning to announce the fact that the emperor has awakened late.
It’s not something to brag about carelessly, and wouldn’t it be embarrassing if you were assassinated after bragging about it?
Of course, it wouldn’t happen easily now that he was guarding it, but he didn’t know it.
When it comes to defense, isn’t it better to do more?
At that moment, Ray sensed someone’s presence outside the door.
“Sleep.”
He mobilized mana and put the emperor to sleep in an instant.
To put it to use and then put it to rest. I’m sorry, but it was something I couldn’t help but avoid being caught.
Knock-knock-
knock was heard and soon after, the three princes opened the bedroom door and came in.
He looked at Ray and said hello.
“Meet the saint. How have you been?”
“Thanks.”
Ray looked at the emperor’s complexion as he spoke.
Glancing at him, he must have been completely asleep.
he heard the story
“Oh, I heard about the prince.”
“Hahaha… It’s an accident, but it’s the imperial family’s shame.”
Anyone who knows already knows that this was an assassination, but an accident is a fucking accident.
It’s been a while, but if you’re thinking of hiding it on a topic that hasn’t even been properly issued yet, you should have acted properly.
But there was nothing I couldn’t get along with.
Ray asked pretending not to know.
“Did you get hurt while riding in a carriage?”
Accidents with nobles’ wagons happen quite often.
It was not uncommon to see one or two deaths from a misguided horse or carriage overturning.
The three princes were dumbfounded for a moment at Ray’s words, then laughed.
“yes? ha ha ha. no. Prince Oh is an Aura user. I’m not going to die in a carriage accident or anything like that.”
Are you saying that Prince Oh is going to give reality to Gura, who died in an accident? It must mean that a wagon accident is a little lacking.
he continued.
“I think it might be because of the group of wyverns. I heard that they were attacked in a nearby village the other day.”
“Hmm….”
Wyvern overcrowded….
It’s an interesting excuse.
Certainly, the Wyvern’s nest is located behind the Empire.
Wyvern, said to be the strongest monster on earth, could rationalize the death of Prince Oh.
In fact, it’s about the subject that they hit and fought with each other.
Perhaps the imperial family had already agreed.
It seems to be a scenario in which Prince Oh went out to the imperial castle for a change of mood, and at that moment was surprised by Wyverns.
It was such a poor excuse that I wanted to know who came up with it.
It would be more credible to say that he was struck by lightning while walking down the street.
The three princes, who were watching Ray, quickly changed the subject.
“By the way, how is His Majesty?”
“iced coffee. You will probably open your eyes after a while.”
“Is that so? That’s a relief… If you need anything, feel free to let me know. We will do our best to help.”
“ha ha ha. Please bring me peace.”
The three princes’ swordsman wriggled at the double meaning.
‘Are you talking about peace between the Holy Kingdom and the Empire? If not, are you talking about the peace of the imperial family?’
I couldn’t respond to his reluctant expression.
Because it seemed that if I did something wrong, I would get caught.
The three princes smiled awkwardly.
“…ha ha ha. Peace will come naturally.”
He got up from his seat as if something had gone awry.
“I have work to do, so I will go. Please take good care of Your Majesty.”
“yes.”
As he left the bedroom, he hesitated for a moment before speaking.
“…Saint, don’t try to know too much about the imperial family.”
With that said, he left the bedroom.
Then, Ray smiled.
The gist of what I wanted to say was roughly conveyed.
What remained would depend on how the imperial family moves.
The three princes told him not to try to find out about the imperial family.
In other words, it is in line with the meaning that everything shows movement.
“Does peace come naturally? It will be fine. Heh heh, these bastards. I will make peace with great force.”
Looking at his appearance, the most suspicious person was Ray.
It was only when he saw that the wolf laughed sinisterly in front of the sleeping emperor in the emperor’s bedroom.
* * *
As the next day dawned, Ray began gathering information again.
No, it’s not just gathering information.
To be precise, it was right to see that he was collecting evidence.
His job is to collect all the filth of the imperial family.
They are looking for all the cases of corruption among themselves or things that might have lowered the dignity of the imperial family.
Of course, So-Young and Heuk-Young had to do things that had to be done secretly.
In any case, he is a superficial figure. You should refrain from doing anything that might raise even a little more suspicion.
Because I shouldn’t give them a warning.
Has it been a week? The information brought by Heuk-young and So-young was quite sophisticated.
Formulas written on parchment and even contents related to transactions.
You really can’t get rid of this.
No, if you try to deny it for nothing, you will be cornered into poison, so you won’t be able to act recklessly.
It seemed just right to restrict their movements.
Especially in the middle of fighting each other like this.
Ray laughed in satisfaction.
“Heh heh. done.”
Soyoung asked him curiously.
“…I’m sorry, but what are you trying to do with it?”
The Dark Spirit also remained silent as if curious.
“this? I will just return it to the owner.”
“…yes?”
“…”
Soyoung didn’t say anything, but she looked at Ray with a crazy expression.
Why return it to the owner? How did you find that!
I’m sure I’ll hide it more tightly so that it won’t be stolen next time!
Ray shook his head, as if he knew what he was thinking.
“I will never move recklessly. It means that the unknown opponent knows the most painful weakness.”
“Is it really so? Rather, it seems to be trying to get rid of the chest water.”
“I know when I see it. Prince Il is still high in succession rank, so even if this happens, he is still at ease. There’s absolutely no reason to rush. However, in the case of this prince, the story is a little different. If this weakness is discovered by others, there is a high possibility that it will not recover. So, if you make a move first, it will be the prince’s side.”
“…”
“If that’s the case, I’ll just have to kill this prince.”
Doesn’t that mean you’re going to beat it in the end!
Ray tapped Soyoung and Heukyoung on the shoulder.
“In the meantime, I will continue to suffer.”
To sum it up, Ray is telling me to steal the parchment again to return to the owner.
Soyoung nodded and shook her head.
“So-Young accepts the order.”
“The Dark Spirit accepts the order.”
“Okay, let’s try hard. Hehehe.”
